This seems like a broken clock having a good chance of being right.
There's so much progress, it wouldn't be that surprising if something quite different completely overtakes the current trend within 5 years.
By NN models overcoming the pivot over representing language - according to LeCun in the article. It could be the Joint Embedding Predictive Architecture - we will see.

LeCun's point looks like a denunciation over an excessive focus over the LLM idea ("it works, so let's expand that" vs "it probably will not achieve the level of a satisfactory general model, so let us directly try to go beyond it").
